Al-Lu'lu Wal-MarjanHadith Number 1659
حَدِيثُ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ الأَنْصَارِيِّ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ الله ﷺ قَالَ: «لَا يَحِل لِرَجُلٍ أَنْ يَهْجُرَ أَخَاهُ فَوْقَ ثَلَاثِ لَيَالٍ. يَلْتَقِيَانِ، فَيُعْرِضُ هاذَا، وَيُعْرِضُ هاذَا. ⦗١٩٠⦘ وَخَيْرُهُمَا الَّذِي يَبْدَأُ بِالسَّلَامِ»..
Abu Ayyub Al-Ansari Narrated from:
Allâh’s Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم said, “It is not lawful for a man to desert his brother Muslim for more than three nights. (It is unlawful for them that) when they meet, one of them turns his face away from the other, and the other turns his face from the former, and the better of the two will be the one who greets the other first.” ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 100, Vol. 8 )
